Getting heRO to work on linux...

[Kulluminatii]

Sorry for the double post, but I guess its needed .

I tried the alternate option in step 7, where you use "grf tool" to unpack heRO.grf and take a peek at the "sclientinfo.xml file for an IP address. However, when opening the .xml file, I was not able to see any sort of IP listed . When looking through the ratemyserver forums, I found a little more info.

Wine and Cedega (WineX) can both run RO. Wine's winsocks interface has problems handling DNS-requests with Ragnarok Online if your client doesn't have DNS support built in, which would give you a failed to connect message after trying to resolve the IP incorrectly.

So after knowing that...Im guessing heRO doesnt have DNS support built in...? Or if it does, then it reassures me that I am using the wrong IP address to try to connect.


As I type this I realize that tomorrow is the SVN update, and if I am correct, a new installer will also be released? I guess I might as well wait for that to come out before I resume trying to get this friggin server to work!
